‘Independence’ Day?

Today is the day to “celebrate” the day a group of brave men banded together to declare themselves independent of a ruling tyrannical regime. The descendants of those brave group of men have created a still more tyrannical ruling regime that claims ownership of our lives and property.

As Stephen Kinsella asks, “One percent tax paid to a distant King over the ocean sound appealing, anyone?”

Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison (TX) visited US soldier boys in Iraq, in part to celebrate Independence Day with them.Is there anything more Orwellian than celebrating “Independence Day” while part of an invading, occupying army?

UPDATE:

The Dallas Morning Ooze reports:

"Seven teams of officers will patrol the city, hunting for people igniting fireworks or shooting guns. They'll also be responding to reports from the public. "

AND

"This is also another "no refusal" weekend in Dallas and other cities throughout the region. Officers will seek warrants to draw blood from those suspected of DWI if the drivers refuse to submit voluntarily to breath or blood tests. Boaters in some areas are also subject to the no-refusal policies."

Let’s all celebrate “freedom” in Dallas as Johnny Law steals away your fireworks, than violently holds you to the ground while the state’s vampires draw blood from your body against your will.

About Me

Several years ago I started writing as a hobby and I’ve had my columns published at Strike-the-Root.com, Lew Rockwell.com, Anti-War.com, MensNewsDaily.com, Novakeo.com, ActivistPost.com, InfoWars.com, and ThePriceofLiberty.org. I use my writing as a tool to encourage people to reject state dominion and to live as the free individuals God intended. Individual liberty is not compatible with state coercion, no matter the size of the institution nor the constitutional restrictions placed upon it. The goal of those liberated from statist inclinations and nationalism is a stateless society based on the principles of non-aggression, individual respect, self-ownership and common sense. This can only come about through individual-initiated education and spiritual reform. I hope my writing aids others in those pursuits.
